Mr. Scot

Would somebody actually pursue charges in this? Doesn't seem like that'd stick given that it's public, but I'm not a legal scholar. I will grant it looks pretty stupid.

With expensive sheets.

If someone like Fields or Lance fell to us at 8, we'd probably just take them.

If we acquire a different quarterback or he's traded somewhere else, that'll be the end of the story. Until then, anything's possible. That said, I don't know that he's going to get traded at all. Based on what I've read, doesn't seem likely. And if the Texans do change their mind, we're not in a good position to make the best offer. Also, yeah the possibility of the Texans hanging on to him through a holdout does exist. As unlikely as it may sound, it is possible that they manage to reconcile with him on some level, or at least get him to agree to play even if he's not particularly happy.. I feel the likelihood of that last scenario is pretty small though.

I'm not so sure of that. I can't recall ever seeing a time when the league had as many quarterback hungry teams as it does right now.

Ravens Judon threatens to leak photos of ESPN reporter at a strip club No, it isn't David Newton. Via Andrew Bucholtz of AwfulAnnouncing.com, Ravens linebacker Matthew Judon has taken issue with the reporting of Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. Judon’s ire has manifested itself in a specific and pointed threat. Judon vowed on social media to take specific action against Hensley if Hensley doesn’t apologize for something Hensley reported. “I’m waiting on your ESPN sourced apology or I’m leaking these photos I got with you in the strip club,” Judon said. The report from Hensley doesn’t seem to justify the extreme reaction from Judon. Hensley reported that the Ravens offered Judon a long-term deal in the range of $16.5 million annually and that Judon declined.

Personal speculation: Somebody will get impatient.

There's pretty heavy speculation that at least two, and probably three, of the teams ahead of us are going to take a quarterback. If just one team trades up with someone else, that's all four gone.

Still say the penalties he got for a phantom false start and supposedly chucking the flag at a ref were bullsh-t.

One thing I think is abundantly clear: Tepper wants the Panthers to be in the public eye. Thus he's open to reality show type programming Heck, besides All or Nothing, the team had their own reality type thing on site last offseason. Well, at least until the Cam Newton fiasco seemingly brought it to a screeching halt, which makes me think that there are some limits (they don't want to look bad). Lord knows Jerry Richardson wanted anything behind the scenes locked down tighter than Fort Knox, but Tepper really seems to enjoy the visibility of being in the spotlight.

That's probably an appropriate image to use for this post.

After seeing him at the Senior Bowl, I'm not sure I'd spend a seventh rounder on Jamie Newman.

I'd say he's a bad person regardless of what he does with his money.

Gas station fried chicken... I was thinking of having a snack but I'm not really hungry anymore

It's not that terrible a scenario. We do need offensive line help.

To be fair, fans do that on their own. Cowboy fans will have their Super Bowl parties planned out by mid-August.

Yep. Side Note: I do like Bojangles' food but after eating it I always wind up scrubbing my hands like a surgeon in pre-op

I detect the ever so slightest hint of sarcasm

Richardson probably would have loved having McCarron here. (for...reasons)

Try changing your name to Mrs Jeff Bezos and let me know if that works. (if you really want to get away with it though, you probably better make sure there are no meddling kids around)

Some would say that's appropriate.

That was always a possibility. Long way to go before anything's set in stone though.

I could see that. And yeah, I had the same thought about us.

They could just be calling to ask questions rather than making an actual offer, though I vaguely remember somebody mentioning they thought we'd received an offer. Might have been Verge but I don't remember.

"Washington Team of Football" would make for a more appropriate acronym.
